In this review, the focus is the research of
scientists which studied different GIS applications in marine areas. Based on
literature review, the scientists stressed the use of GIS to assess and predict
effects on marine environment. Marine spatial data are fundamental for a
sustainable environmental management of marine areas, largely surrounded by
countries with borders to the sea. In modern age, known as ‘’information age’’,
data acquisition, analysis and management are essential for rapid, precise and
economical resolutions. GIS applications were recommended to supply a principle
from combining past and present circumstances in order to predict future for
marine areas. This review provides an example to how GIS applications can be
used in the monitoring, conservation, management, sustainable development and
environmental protection stages of marine areas.
